## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

gurk is a terminal Signal Messenger client written in Rust. It provides a text UI for linked-device Signal use and stores its configuration in `gurk.toml` under XDG-style or home-directory paths.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The GitHub repository was created in July 2020, and an early v0.2.0 release was published in July 2021. The README describes first-run linking through a QR code, after which the program creates a configuration file at the default config location.

The project cannot publish its binary through crates.io according to the README because it depends on official Signal libraries that are not available there, so distribution relies on release binaries, source installs, and OS package managers.

### 採用の歴史

The README documents installation through GitHub release binaries, `cargo binstall`, `cargo install --git`, Arch Linux packages, Nix/NixOS, and FreeBSD packages or ports. Homebrew and Arch package metadata make it available as a named package for terminal and messaging users.

Its adoption is necessarily niche: it is useful to users who want Signal in a terminal workflow and are comfortable with linked-device semantics, local configuration, and terminal keybindings.

### 使われ方

Users run `gurk`, link it as a Signal device via QR code on first launch, and then interact through keyboard-driven channel, message, selection, file upload, URL, reaction, mute, and help commands.

Configuration supports custom keybindings and default-keybinding control in `gurk.toml`; the same config locations may contain sensitive linked-client settings, which is why credentials and configuration locations are the same for curation purposes.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

gurk is notable as a package because it sits at an awkward boundary: a Rust TUI application with Signal protocol dependencies that cannot use the ordinary crates.io binary path. That pushes distributors toward GitHub releases, git-based Cargo installs, and OS package recipes.

For terminal users, it is an example of packaging a messaging client as a keyboard-first command rather than a desktop application.

### タイムライン

- 2020: GitHub repository created.
- 2021: v0.2.0 release published.

### Related projects

- Signal Messenger is the service and protocol ecosystem gurk connects to.
- presage is referenced by the README as a related Signal client library.
- libsignal-related libraries are part of the dependency reason the binary is not published on crates.io.
